Summary:
And finally nothing inside libkwineffects, libkwinglutils,
libkwinxrenderutils and kwineffect and kwin core uses KWin::display.
We are finally XLib free!
This change drops KWin::display and removes the include to QX11Info from
kwinglobals.h. And the libraries no longer need to link X11Extras. Due
to that removal a few seeming unrelated changes are required to add the
include where needed and linkage to X11Extras.
The biggest change is to x11 platform plugin which still needs the
display and caches it in the Platform and passes it to various places in
a way that the code doesn't need to be adjusted.

Summary:
KWin still resolves some OpenGL function pointers. For that it needs to
use either eglGetProcAddress or glxGetProcAddress. With other words the
method to resolve needs to know whether it is egl or glx and needs both
a dependency to egl and glx. Especially the dependency to glx is ugly as
that pulls in XLib into our library.
The way so far was to pass an enum value to the initGL method to know
whether it's EGL or GLX. With this change the enum value is removed and
replaced by a function pointer to resolve the methods.
This simplifies the resolve code and allows to completely remove the glx
variant we still had in the library. Thus kwinglutils library is now glx
and XLib free.
Test Plan: nested KWin with OpenGL/EGL still works

Summary:
No need to resolve glx methods through the shared lib. At the moment
this duplicates some code, but will be cleaned up with a follow up
change.

Summary:
Glx extensions are only interesting to the glxbackend. Given that
querying can be moved there.
In order to simplify the extensions can be stored in the OpenGLBackend
which also provides the convenience check as before.
The egl platforms should also be adjusted to query in that way and
remove it from the kwinglutils.
There is still a usage of the glxextensions inside kwinglutils to
resolve one function. That should also be moved into the platform.

Summary:
Glx version is only required once in the standalone x11 platform. No
need to have that in the shared kwinglutils library.
Removes one xlib usage from shared kwin.

Summary:
Rational: unredirect fullscreen windows is a weird beast. It's intended
to make fullscreen windows "faster" by not compositing that screen. But
that doesn't really work as KWin jumps out of that condition pretty
quickly. E.g. whenever a tooltip window is shown. KWin itself has a
better functionality by supporting to block compositing completely.
The complete code was full of hacks around it to try to ensure that
things don't break.
Overall unredirect fullscreen has always been the odd one. We had it
because a compositor needs to have it, but it never got truly integrated.
E.g. effects don't interact with it properly so that some things randomly
work, others don't. Will it trigger the screenedge, probably yes, but
will it show the highlight: properly no.
By removing the functionality we finally acknowledge that this mode is
not maintained and has not been maintained for years and that we do not
intend to support it better in future. Over the years we tried to make
it more and more hidden: it's disabled for Intel GPUs, because it used
to crash KWin. It's marked as an "expert" option, etc.
It's clearly something we tried to hide from the user that it exists.
For Wayland the whole unredirect infrastructure doesn't make sense
either. There is no such thing as "unredirecting". We might make use
of passing buffers directly to the underlying stack, but that will be
done automatically when we know it can be done, not by some magic is
this a window of specific size.
Test Plan:
Compiles, cannot really test as I am an Intel user who never
had that working.

Summary:
It's only needed by the standalone x11 variant. This allows us to
simplify the creation of the OpenGLBackend: it's created by the
platform plugin - we don't need custom complex logic.
